I want to trade both on one platform, I trader equties for a number a years at a prop shop and just have gotten into futures a little.. I am really just interestd in traded equites and the ES, what Platform and charting software is the best for doing both, on one single platform.. Thanks..
I'd suggest you look at Interactive Brokers. It's an integrated platform with many third-party providers for charting, order-entry and analytics. IB's data is used with many charting packages, and their commissions are among the lowest in the industry.
